4x Oil Pan Swap

Thinking about swapping to the 4x oil pan on my 2011 this summer. Part numbers and advice are welcome! Thanks

 

I am looking for the same.

 

4x meaning 4x4 OEM oil pan?

On the 2TR or 1GR?

 

1gr. If yo swap to the 4or oil pan you gain oil capacity and hopefully keep from cavitation in the pan.

 

Would have figured the 4x4 pan had less capacity given it's made in such a way to clear the front differential which isn't in the way on
a 4x2.

Cavitation should only be an issue if you're over filling unless I misunderstand what you're referring to.

 

Here is a good post on the differences. You’ll need to hammer the cross member in some.
Be aware that there is an upper and lower pan. You’ll need both.
Part of the oil pick up tube is in the upper pan.
You’ll need the pans from a 4WD truck.

Unfortunately, @Coupe stopped making the spacer kit w/baffle.

Here is another discussion on the topic.

I could be persuaded to make another run of spacers, but I would need at least 5 people that wanted them.

 

I'm interested. Seems easier to do that than the whole pan and upper pan.

 

I’m interested too but it’s gonna be hard to get 5 bc this is really only for the XR guys

 

That is 2 out of 5.

 

If it were me, and I owned an XRunner.
I’d probably got to some other forums and get the word out about a possible “group/batch buy”
That way, the odds are better you get this to happen.

That is if, I were serious about getting one.

Not directing this to you Coupe.
I’m referring to the buyer(s)

 

Question being, how much? Still around $200?

 

The last batch I made was in the summer of 2018.

I charged:

$300 for non baffled spacers with all hardware, shipped.
$450 for baffled spacers with all hardware, shipped.

I asked for a $100 deposit and it would take about 8 weeks before I shipped( I might be able to do it in 6 weeks in 2021). In 2018 I asked for ten (10) buyers. This time I am only asking for five (5). I will do them at the same prices listed in 2018.

When we get five (5) people that want them, I will ask for a deposit, then I will start machining them.

Oil pan spacer with baffle.

 

I'm in for one.

 

I'd be in for 1 too. Trying to decide if I want a baffle or not.

 

I am going to move the discussion of the oil pan spacer to the original thread.

This is where you can sign up for an oil pan spacer.

I have a couple of these oil pan spacers left for X-Runners.
